[ Mm, it would have been a lot easier if they could ask Lazuli... It's a shame. But in that regard, all he gives is a little smile, his internal thoughts on their last mentor's disappearance unreadable otherwise. ]
About tethering you somehow? He knows I'm trying to send everyone back.
[ Tatara smiles, nods. Once he gets a clearer picture of things, then he'll come to Ithaqua with more info, for sure. Though now that he thinks about it, there's a good handful of people he'll need to talk to about this...
You were the one that found Oz in the castle, right? [ He remembers Ithaqua climbing into his window to tell him, but he wants to make sure his memory is correct. ]
[ Tatara, in contrast, is somewhat enigmatic as usual. He just looks at Ithaqua in return, his smile faint and not at all hinting towards what he might be thinking. If he really is keeping something from him (spoiler: he isn't, he's just like this). ]
Mm-hmm, of course. You're my wizard, after all!
[ He gives a little wave and whirls on his heel, making his way to the door. ]

but he's going to forget about this because things get busy...He shakes his head. He'll set that aside for later.]
Whatever assistance you need for this venture, I'll offer it to you.
[He's determined to make this work. Tatara might even hear a hint of desperation in his tone... but can anyone blame him?]

Putting a pin in that. Anyway— ]
Also, I wanted to ask you something. Do you mind?
no subject
Of course, colour him curious...]
What are you to ask me?
no subject
Who did you tell afterwards?
no subject
Comet, Ahito, Joyous Day, and Jing Yuan. Did any of them do anything untoward?
[Was his trust misplaced? Does he need to murder someone now?]
no subject
You're fine. I was just comparing notes with another wizard and realized I didn't know who found out from who. But this helps.
[ He smiles! ]
Thanks, Ithaqua. I'm glad you're recovering well.

Your concern and visit are appreciated.
